should learn about two or three or all of them, really.

they're not long + not hard to memorise important bits

yeah we're doing Pete's poems .. i think ill be learning 3 in heavy detail and one more just in case the question doesnt fit those three.

cheers

Well in our trials, we had to refer to two poems...*goes and checks*...yep two poems. Here's the question we got:

"Sometimes change is beyond our control. When we look back we see that history and chance has collided to produce some change that effects everyone."

at my school, we were told to memorise/learn 3
but of course you'd still need an overall understanding of all poems.

definately pick 3 of the best (related to changing persp),
and study them in depth, so you'll be prepared.

crossing the red sea
migrant hostel (or even feliks skr...)
as well as postcard

they're my ones that i've learnt.

1 is not enough

yeah 2 / 3

can they specify which ones they want us to use? so do we need 2 know all of them basically?

 

[s2ophie]

this is on behalf of what braindrainedash told me that her teacher said -

they can specify which ones they want you do but they would have to print outt he entire poem.

 

[babydoll_]

my school said 2/3 too

 

[braindrainedAsh]

Yeah as Soph said, when I asked my english teacher, he said that if they ask you to refer to a specific poem in the question that have to print the poem in it's entirety on the exam paper. He also said that it is very unlikely that they would ask you to refer to a specific poem in the AOS because not everyone is doing Skrzynecki, there are a lot of texts to choose from for changing perspectives.
